While I may not have spent a lot of time getting familiar with Perrelet’s catalog, I’ve long been a fan of their Turbine series. There’s just something about getting that kinetic movement showing on the dial side that really grabs my attention. For their latest release, they’ve definitely pulled power from the atomic batteries: meet the Perrelet Turbine Full Lum
As you can guess from the name, the Perrelet Turbine Full Lum is, well, fully luminous. The hands, indices, and numerals, that we expect. Here, though, the chapter ring that the numerals and indces are mounted on? Luminous. The spinning turbine on the dial? Luminous! These are all done in green, but in varying shades, so you get quite the interesting light show with this watch.
Powering the watch, you’ve got their in-house movement, the P-331-MH, which carries a COSC certification. So, it’s not just a fun watch to see in action, it’s also one that’s going to keep itself nice and accurate. Only 50 of these light-up-the-night versions will be offered, coming in at $4,750.
